Yeah, I find that coupons sometimes exist to get people to buy the more expensive product. They aren’t always the great savings that they imply.

Another money tip is to read the information the store provides on buying bulk products, like a 10 for 10 sales. I just recently went to Target, and they were having a sale for composition books. On the other side, they were selling the books for $1.00 each. With the sale price, I would have spent .60 more money! Likewise, a local grocery store was selling 10 for 10 of saran wrap. It looked like a good deal until I looked at how much was in the boxes. I bought two name brand for $3 and got more than what would have been in those 10 boxes.

We get trained that a sale is a great deal and a lot of savings, and sometimes it isn’t.
